Are these drafty on cold days? How is the moisture situation?

If the solar tubes are installed correctly, there are no drafts and there is no moisture. Be sure that your installer is experienced, detail oriented, and offers a warranty.

Dry, seal, giving lots of light......just go for it.It´s worth every penny you send

Not drafty at all. You need to make sure you seal it properly with aluminium hvac tape and put some fiber glass insulation around it. It comes with some of this hvac tape but you may need more. I did not have any issues with moisture and I have it installed in my bath room. Love it. It gives so much natural light. Probably comparable to 150W bulb.

I installed myself and was careful to seal and caulk liberally. There are no drafts of hot or cold air, even when it was below zero in the winter and above 90 in the summer. There are also no leaks, although on a rare occasion I have noticed some condensation on the lens if my wife takes a long hot steamy bath, (one of my skylights is in a bathroom). The other skylights have not shown condensation.

No i have not tried the moisture side. She was born in winter. And out grew in about 2 months. She was born at 6.0lbs. And this was a great insert. But they grow fast. And it was nice and warm.

I have had this set for about 3 months, so far no moisture and they look great. I also have a set in my F-150 for about 3 years and have had no moisture.

I have a wide foot too and they are a good fit. Cold weather? Define cold? I live in California so the coldest I have used them in so far is high 40's with heavy socks and they were fine.

So, far I have not had any problems with moisture, or mold. And we get pretty good winters. I used the underlsyment for my hsrdwood gloors which was all throughout the house. Hope this helped in your decision.

they stay moist for quite a long time. i just opened my second box and haven't had any issues. i think i've found maybe 1-2 duds but besides that im never concerned of them being dry.

I wore wool socks all the time when I was in the Army. They were mandatory at a winter combat survival course I attended. These are definitely warmer than wool and are much less scratchy. Although you may notice that they are a bit thicker than other socks due to the layering of different materials intended to hold in heat more efficiently. But that's not much of a downside in my opinion. It was -10 degrees when I left the house yesterday morning and my feet were nice and toasty all day.

I do cold water and air dry only. They last over a year before they start to lose their fit. I never have issues with smell, shrinkage and weak or lazy fabric. It's the heat in the drier that really kills these.

No, personally they did not feel overly warm, but they are obviously different than wearing the "Crocs" type of shoe in that there is no holes for ventilation. I chose these as I wanted clean feet (without chance of the dirt getting inside the shoe) when digging in the dirt - and they did just that for me!

I am ignoring the "Best by" date on mine. They are really well dehydrated, so as long as they don't get damp they should last indefinitely. Good for "preppers", I would think.

I used them in a wet (not frozen) environment and then had wool sock on under them...my feet got wet, really wet and cold but would have been colder without them.

I bought these in 2010 and just used them yesterday. They were kept in their container and inside the house. I had no issues with them. They do pull moisture, so keep them sealed up while storing.

yes, they can get pretty toasty in there. i only wear them to walk to work in the morning as there is dew all over the grass & gets my feet & pants wet & they seem to be fine. but i have worn them out to check on my garden & they definitely keep your feet warm.

Id have to ask what kind of moisture conditions you are subjecting them to. They are pretty stoudtly built . If you are talking about work out conditions , then yes , they hold up well

I live in Utah. These were great for our cold weather months (~Nov thru Apr). But once we hit the first day of spring, I changed them for something cooler and more "springy". I don't like to be warm at all on summer nights and I do think these would be too warm for year round use. I love these for the winter though -- each bed in our home has a set of these. And if they ever wore out, I'd be hoping they still make these so I could buy them again.

We haven't noticed any moisture in ours. We have had them in all seasons and they look great still.

That's hard to answer... I live in AZ where it doesn't get that cold usually. I did wear them in the pouring rain in the low 40's...and they were warm enough for me. I would probably wear them in 30 degrees if I was dry.
